Salomé es la fascinante y controvertida tragedia en un acto de Oscar Wilde, una inquietante reinterpretación del relato bíblico de la lujuria, el poder y la venganza. Ambientada en la decadente corte del rey Herodes, la obra sigue a la enigmática y bella Salomé, que se obsesiona peligrosamente con el profeta Iokanaan (Juan el Bautista). Cuando él rechaza sus insinuaciones, su deseo se convierte en obsesión, lo que la lleva a exigir su cabeza en una bandeja de plata como precio de su infame Danza de los siete velos.Escrita originalmente en francés y prohibida en los escenarios británicos tras su estreno, Salomé es una obra de poesía hipnótica e imaginería decadente, impregnada del ingenio característico de Wilde y de un penetrante comentario social. Un hito del drama simbolista, conmocionó y fascinó al público con su mezcla de erotismo, misticismo y deseo fatal.Esta edición presenta las impactantes ilustraciones de Aubrey Beardsley, cuyos dibujos atrevidos y provocativos —a la vez grotescos, sensuales y de una elegancia oscura— se han vuelto inseparables del legado de la obra. Juntas, las palabras de Wilde y el arte de Beardsley crean una visión embriagadora de belleza y destrucción, lo que hace de este volumen una adición esencial para cualquier amante del teatro, la literatura, el arte y el movimiento decadente. 10
